Fire Research at the Science–Policy–Practitioner Interface

The main aim of the Section, Fire Research at the Science–Policy–Practitioner Interface, is to highlight research seeking to assess operational approaches to wildland fire management. We welcome submissions from indigenous, state, and agency land management in addition to academic and non-governmental organizations. All areas of wildland fire science management are welcome, including, but not limited to, wildland fire policy and planning, fuel treatments, habitat assessments, fire hazard and risk reduction, post-fire hydrology, ecological restoration, smoke-reduction approaches, experiences of community-based fire management, etc. One of the goals of this Section is to facilitate the sharing of information between wildland fire managers and scientists, through interacting with a series of international wildland fire science information networks.

	The Global Wildland Fire Network
	The Northern Rockies Fire Science Network
	The Great Plains Fire Science Exchange
	The Alaska Fire Science Consortium
	The Great Basin Fire Science Exchange
	The Southern Fire Exchange
	The Pacific Fire Exchange
	The Miombo Network
	The Southern African Fire Network
	The Mediterranean Regional Information Network
	The South Asia Regional Information Network
	Fire Research and Management Exchange System
	The Southern Rockies Fire Science Network
	International Science Reserve
	Tallgrass Prairie and Oak Savanna Fire Science Information Exchange

Additional networks are welcome to participate in this Section. The Section welcomes all forms of papers but is particularly interested in Case Reports describing significant fire events and governmental or community-based fire management applications.
